Featuring an all solid-wood construction crafted from a carved spruce top and beautifully figured curly maple back & sides, the GM-12+ by Gold Tone delivers a bright, loud and percussive acoustic voice. Aside from great tone, the GM-12+ features celluloid binding and a hand-rubbed oil finish on the neck and body to offer a worn vintage look and feel. Guitar players will appreciate the comfortable slim maple neck, the ultra-playable radiused ebony fingerboard and the familiar string tuning (EADGBe). For improved tuning and superb amplified tone, the intonated ebony bridge comes outfitted a unique Gold Tone bridge-mounted piezo transducer. Other premium features include a ZeroGlide bone nut, a gold-plated tailpiece that allows for ball-end string and a set of gold-plated Kluson-style tuning machines. Comes with the full protection of a hardshell case.
